Since 2021, when the House was controlled by Democrats, the ethics panel has been investigating allegations that Gaetz had "engaged in sexual misconduct and illicit drug use."
Gaetz was also previously investigated by the Department of Justice over allegations that he trafficked and engaged in sex with a minor, although charges against the congressman were later dropped and he has continued to maintain his innocence.
Gaetz on Monday suggested that the Republican-controlled committee had launched new investigations against him in a post to X, formerly Twitter, while predicting that the matter would end in his "exoneration."
